Renaming table in Ecto migration

I recently wanted to rename a model and its postgres table in a Phoenix app. Renaming the table was simple and documented, but the table also had constraints, sequences, and indexes that needed to be updated in order for the Ecto model to be able to rely on default naming conventions. I couldn't find any examples of what this would look like but was eventually able to figure it out. For anyone else in the same situation, hopefully this example helps.

In the example below, I'm renaming the Permission model to Membership. This model belongs to a User and an Account, so it has foreign key constraints that need to be renamed.

defmodule MyApp.Repo.Migrations.RenamePermissionsToMemberships do
  use Ecto.Migration

The Complete Guide to Nested Forms in Phoenix

I recently spent some time dealing with nested forms in Phoenix. Nested forms are great when you want to create multiple database records in a single transaction and associate them with each other. I am new to Phoenix and really struggled to find any resources that helped me with my specific problem. I decided to document what I learned in the process in hopes of helping others that are new to Elixir and Phoenix.

Here is my attempt at a one stop shop to learn everything you will need to know about nested forms. If you would like to view the GitHub repo you can check it out here.

Thanks to Heartbeat and Jose for excellent blog posts on nested forms. Also shoutout to Josh for showing me some examples at Ruby

Latency numbers every programmer should know

L1 cache reference ......................... 0.5 ns
Branch mispredict ............................ 5 ns
L2 cache reference ........................... 7 ns
Mutex lock/unlock ........................... 25 ns
Main memory reference ...................... 100 ns             
Compress 1K bytes with Zippy ............. 3,000 ns  =   3 µs
Send 2K bytes over 1 Gbps network ....... 20,000 ns  =  20 µs
SSD random read ........................ 150,000 ns  = 150 µs

Read 1 MB sequentially from memory ..... 250,000 ns = 250 µs
